117: Metallica HARDWIRED…TO SELF DESTRUCT

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/11/18

November 18, 2021: Metal Nerdery Podcast releases an episode dedicated to HARDWIRED…TO SELF DESTRUCT on the 5th anniversary of this (double) album’s release and, coincidentally, on the 24th anniversary of the release of RELOAD (which represented the 2nd of “The Loads”, which was kind of a double album as well). Let’s just call November 18th “METALLICA Day”, to be filled with loads of positive affirmations. Prepare your wolf steak & “space lettuce wraps,” consider the subtle, stoner-doom presence

116: Knotfest & Inside the Prog Metal

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/11/11

Think of this episode as Metal Nerdery Podcast’s “double-concept-EP-hidden-bonus-split-album” podcast, with “double the content” (kind of…) of any of our prior episodes (I mean, not really…but also, definitely kind of…). Not only will you get the Metal Nerdery Concert Report featuring a review of the boys’ recent KNOTFEST experience in Atlanta, but you’ll also get, for a limited time* (again, kind of, but not really…but also again, …definitely kind of…) the latest installment of “Inside the Metal”

115: Live After Death: Live Dive of Iron Maiden‘s...

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/11/04

As you might recall from one of our earlier episodes, the “live concert album” is not just a recording of a band playing in front of a LIVE concert hall audience: it’s a virtual concert experience. With that being said, IRON MAIDEN’s “LIVE AFTER DEATH” is arguably THE finest LIVE concert album experience in ALL of metal (if not in ALL of existence). Everything about it: the cover artwork, the tracks, the sound, and the unforgettable stage banter, transports you back to those LIVE shows during

114: Inside the Metal: CORROSION OF CONFORMITY

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/10/28

CORROSION OF CONFORMITY (or C.O.C. “if you’re into the whole brevity thing…”) has continuously modified and improved upon the recipe for their heavy, hardcore, punk, thrash, doom, groove, metal infused gumbo to sound like one ginormous platter of Skynyrd Fried Sabbath deliciousness covered (nay, smothered!) in Riff Gravy. Remember your teachings from the Wolf Steak Vocal Method and understand what “facing your fears,” really means, take a deep breath, inhale “the jam room bouquet” and JOIN US as we

113: Inside the Metal: Type O Negative

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/10/21

Nothing ghoulishly screams October and All Hallows’ Eve quite like TYPE O NEGATIVE, the hard core, goth-prog-doom metal crossover giants hailing from Brooklyn, New York. In fact, the only thing greater than TYPE O’s uniquely gothic and unsettlingly creepy, green aesthetic was their ability to NEVER take themselves too seriously; something which we here at MNHQ 33rd Floor I.U.B.P. Studios fully support and highly encourage. Light a few candles for atmosphere, order a to-go-plate of Ron’s Large

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/10/14

ACTUS REUS, the up-and-coming metalcore titans hailing from the suburbs of north Atlanta, are continuing the evolution of metal’s “Next Wave” by blending thrash, death, and prog metal into their brutally heavy, metalcore foundation. Keep an eye out for them, because they’re already making HUGE waves on the local metal scene throughout Georgia and all across the Southeastern U.S. Prepare to discover the future of metal biglyness, try not to worry too much about “the guilty act,” embrace the

111: Slayer Reign In Blood Album Dive

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/10/07

REIGN IN BLOOD (R.I.B.), the third full length offering by the mighty and powerful SLAYER, is quintessential Thrash perfection. It’s so sublime it’s practically one song with 10 distinct movements (think “Ten Degrees of R.I.B.”). It’s so superb that it can only be listened to from start to finish, front to back, in order. Period. Go ahead and hit up Smog Dog for some anti-relaxers to keep up during the sing-along, prepare the Goat Children cover models for guidance and JOIN US to rejoice and

110: Metal Soundtracks

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/09/30

There was a time when Movie SOUNDTRACKS basically sucked and the only thing that could make them even remotely palatable was the inclusion of a Metal band, really any metal band! (Obviously NOT Europe!). Thankfully, we now live in the modern age, where it’s not uncommon to see bands like Slayer and Pantera included on a moving picture soundtrack. (And as you’ll soon discover, bolth bands have actually been on several soundtracks, and actually on one together!!!) Time to corral your free-range

There’s entirely too much happening at Metal Nerdery’s 33rd Floor Inverted Bunkerpoon Studios!!! Just know we made liberal use of our speak-holes to discuss HELMET’s third album, BETTY, and the multitude of things we love about them/it (including a tangentional tie-in to Black Sabbath!). Fire up the grill, throw on some road lobster, porn dogs and hamburgers, and try out some of those fancy stoner banjo riffs as you prepare to JOIN US for a snort laugh or three, because the hills are alive and

107: One and Done - Metal Bands with One Album.. sorta.

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

Sometimes in life, it only takes ONE. ONE experience to understand everything. ONE move to win it all. ONE chance to achieve glory. And in the case of this episode, ONE was interpreted in more than ONE way! (ONE Ironically sarcastic sigh) JOIN US as we try our best to heed the message of Connor MacLeod (“There can be only ONE”) and stay in ONE lane while everything else goes off the rails.

106: Suicidal Tendencies: The Overview

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/09/02

Practice talking about “Suicidal Tendencies” at all of your work, family and social events and see exactly how many people will absolutely lose their minds…at the fact that you actually are familiar with the S.T. and The Chief Sermonator, The Rev. MIKE MUIR of the Church of SUICIDAL TENDENCIES* (which, to avoid any further triggering, will be referred to henceforthian as “S.T.”*). Mark the time (to be “Lovely”), break out your skateboard (“Give It Revolution”), inhale a half pipe full of relaxers

105: Led Zeppelin: Overview

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/08/26

Since analogies are usually the easiest way to explain two things which are similar, think of LED ZEPPELIN as the Metallica of the 60s and 70s…kind of. As Metallica did with so many obscure NWOBHM bands and songs, similarly, LED ZEPPELIN co-opted the sound of their favorite obscure Blues artists to help forge a new, heavier brand of cockrockian sonic bliss never heard before in Rock’n’roll. Let the “Dogs of Doom” out to play, roll another bowl of Valhalla relaxers to celebrate Ragnarök Eve and JOIN

104: Shout at the Devil

Metal Nerdery Podcast ·

2021/08/19

By 1983, MOTLEY CRUE had cemented their legendary reputation as the most notorious heavy metal band on the Los Angeles Sunset Strip. The band’s sophomore release, SHOUT AT THE DEVIL, can be summed up as NWOBHM meets L.A. Glam with a generous infusion of decadence, debauchery and just a dash of the occult for good measure (because let’s face it: if it terrifies the establishment enough to put a “Parental Advisory” sticker on the cover, you know it’s GOT to be awesome!).

It would seem that the hour (and a half or so…) is upon us. As of the date of the release of this episode, we here at Metal Nerdery HQ 33rd Floor I.B.P. Studios (and really, EVERYONE in the greater metropolitan multiverse) will be “officially” unofficially (or “unofficially” officially) celebrating the 30th Birthday of METALLICA, METALLICA’s eponymous 5th studio album affectionately known here at Metal Nerdery HQ (and EVERYWHERE throughout the world and other dimensions) as “THE BLACK ALBUM”.

While it’s true AC/DC’s debut may resemble Chuck Berry style Rock ‘N’ Roll, understand that it’s got way more sleaze, way more attitude, and way more…balls! Oh yeah, and way more HEADBANGING!

2021/07/22

Tony Iommi’s opening cough solo on BLACK SABBATH’s 3rd release (1971’s MASTER OF REALITY) signaled the “Big Bong”, (the creative “spark”, if you will) that would become the “seed”, the “budding” genesis of ALL Stoner Metal. It’s our 100th episode, and what better way to celebrate our “elevation” into the realm of triple digits than to “inhale” BLACK SABBATH, Vol. III (or “MASTER OF REALITY” in case you weren’t following the bouncing balls. Or ball. Or whatever it is that’s bouncing that you

Imagine the following scenario: you are one of the most powerful names in all of Thrash and are tasked with releasing a follow-up to your own unmatched, game changing, genre defining, masterpiece. Do you: A: do what’s “safe” and duplicate what you’ve already perfected (*yawn*)? OR B: continue to evolve and expand your sonic palette by changing your approach? Thankfully, SLAYER went with option B, toning down the sonic chaos and breakneck speed of REIGN IN BLOOD with darker, slower, heavier

Metal Prophecy states that TB4 (The Big 4) made a pact with TAI (The Almighty Iommi) to unite like some ginormous Voltronesque Thrash Beast for the furtherance and advancement of Thrash (and really, ALL Metal, but mostly, REALLY Thrash) to a new frontier (or perhaps even “a new level”, you might say…) of unheralded, unmatched power. The prophecy required that each of TB4 release an album of their latest and finest work during the same designated Gregorian based calendar year: 1988. 1988 was
